Take a Run Through Universal Studio's Backlot

Raise money to help fund free cancer support services.

It's not every day you get a chance to run around the backlot at Universal Studios. Nov. 10 will be an exception, when the grounds will open for the annual We Spark 10K Run and Walk.

Now in its fifth year, the event raises money for free support services for cancer patients. We Spark offers various support groups, classes and workshops for adults, teens and children. For more information about the organization, visit the We Spark website.

Runners and walkers will make their ways past the Psycho house, the Jaws shark, War of the Worlds set, and much more. There will be celebrity guests, food trucks, t-shirts for participants and much more, according to the event website. The entry fee is $40 with a minimum fundraising requirement of $60. 

Hurry to sign up; spaces are limited.
